First of all, you must describe your device with RapidDriver Explorer then install a device using USB bus specific driver (RapidUSB.sys). Then you may create and run your own application to control a USB device for which the driver has been installed. All USB functions/procedures are placed in RapidUSB.dll interface library.
You can install the RapidUSB.sys driver for many USB devices, so every USB device will have it's own DeviceInstance parameter value in OpenRapidUSB function.
Note: In some cases we will use the "RapidUSB" term assuming the RapidDriver Developer edition when we are working with a USB device through the RapidUSB.sys and RapidUSB.dll.
Here is what you can do with RapidUSB:
| · | access USB device descriptors
|
| · thread safe access to USB pipes
|
| · support of Interrupt and Bulk pipes
|
| · support devices with multiple interfaces
|
| · support multiple devices simultaneously
|
To work with the driver itself the choice of programming language is not vital. At present RapidDriver package includes support of the following programming systems:
| · | Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0
|
| · | Microsoft Visual Basic .Net
|
